Bryn Rhodes SOW

Bryn Rhodes write the FHIR application for the Clinical Decision Support Tool. 

  • Advise on HIT needs
  • Perform environmental scan with partners
  • Design CDS tool
  • Write the FHIR application for the Clinical Decision Support Tool
  • Design implementation plan



Funding for IT consultants/vendors

Do we have funding built in for Clinical Architecture? No

  • CDS Tool Virtual Programmer $120K
    • Take $10K from this pool for Clinical Architecture
    • So allocate $100K for Bryn
  • Data Extraction Cost $10K  - Azara 
  • Save $1 - 2K to Data Specialist for data cleaning

Goal - save $10K in case there is a need for IT consultation down the line. Year ends  


HIV Model requested by KM



Funding? CDC

Aileen and Karen Hoover - funding for year beginning 

USPFTF will be saying CDS tools are ... via AHRQ will be doing CDS on HIV.  This project is being showcased as an example, so likely this will be re funded.



PrEP Guidelines 

Hopefully guidelines will be broad enough - and subjective.

Example:  Australia's guidelines

from the informatics viewpoint, who is actually at risk - and needs PrEP. How do you define "needs?"  Anxiety about HIV?  A: new techology... 



HEPC Project





HEP C one pager
We have it in PPT and in 

Cascade

There is a filter to the cascade so that the CHCs can be filtered by ?

HCCN can filter CHCs and look only at something like "patients tested" using the filter

How to obtain input from public health agency

What do we need to add or consider in Cascade for population health management at HCCN level?





AllianceChicago/HCN already knows who the partners are - schedule an intro with the partners.

  • Explain project & Cascade
  • Next Steps
    • tell us what local level data elements within each steps of the cascade would help you improve quality improvement 
    • Do they need $ to get someone to build - can NACHC provide to CHCs? We are contracted with AllianceChicago/HCN.  Help in creating a Tableau dashboard - can/does AC/HCN do that at the CHC level?  Who could help on that?  

Does HCCN have access to the local data - if not, do the CHCs have internal capacity?



ContractsRussell Brown (Deactivated)Contracts have been blocked at NACHC for admin reasons.

Funding

HepC is not likely to be refunded.  There is carryover to complete the work, so dashboards can be completed even if we go into the following year.

No opportunity for dissemination: paper, conferences, but the work itself will be done.



Good Morning Hep C Intervention Project Team,

Thanks for a great call and some wonderful conversation! Sorry for the late follow-up email, we had a major deadline for the CDC and it was an “all hands on deck” after the launch call.

Anyway, I wanted to reach out to get a date on the books for our Design Meeting. The focus of the meeting will be the dashboard construction, design, and data. The duration of the meeting will be 1.5 – 2 hours. I am including everyone on the launch call on this scheduling email, but if there are other folks from your respective teams that need to be involved, please factor them into the scheduling, as well.

Here are the dates that the NACHC team is available for the next 3 weeks:

3/19: 12-1:30pm

3/23: 2-3:30pm

3/26: 11-2

3/29: 11-3pm

If none of those blocks of times work for your team, please let me know and we can look further out.

Other Next Steps:

  • Contact information for the health centers involved in the project and their state. We will need this to start onboarding the health department and to have a meeting with each of them their local dashboard.
  • Confluence information – names, emails, and roles for the project
  • Personas from each health center
  • Clinical and Data Workflows

If you could let us know a date and time that works for the team by Friday, COB, I would greatly appreciate it.


If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
